Re: Never again on PE - share your mistakes

Called tower 25 miles out. Guess I was a little excited about arriving. Was told to call back when I was 6 miles out. Called back 6 miles out from their class D. Told that they meant 6 miles from the airfield, but helped me out anyway.

Still much to learn. Thanks PE controllers!

My callsign was N231J in case the controller I was chatting to is on this forum.

How to disconnect suddenly while getting flight following?

I had a wind storm come up (at my house in RL) and was receiving flight following from KSBA to KBUR and was about to enter charlie airspace for KBUR. I let the controller know I needed to cancel flight following because I needed to quickly disconnect. He said that's fine and I did. Seemed to go OK, ...

Re: Crash 4 secs after connecting every time

I've started a full reinstall.

I am not using a plugin by another ATC network.

I have not installed any CSLs. Vanilla install of XP and PE.

I'll try the traffic trick if the problem persists after reinstall.

Re: Crash 4 secs after connecting every time

I also verified that this occurs at airports other than my usual KAPA. For example John Wayne in CA. Also verified it occurs in different aircraft. Tried a 747 and the same effect. To be clear: XPlane performs normally. Then as soon as I connect and authenticate with PilotEdge, it'll either crash im...

Crash 4 secs after connecting every time

I'm running PE 1.5.0 on OS X with X-Plane 11.30. Today this problem started. Every time I connect to PE, it'll work for about 4 seconds, I'll hear others speaking sometimes, and then it crashes the whole of XPlane. I've tried deleting my XPlane preferences and that didn't work. I tried removing my j...

Re: Connected. See traffic. KAPA works. Can't hear/speak in

I actually think it's a radio issue. At some CA airports I can hear ATC and pilots but it's very staticky. So I guess there is emulation in pilotedge that causes the radio to behave like a real radio. i.e. you can't hear ATC if you're too far away? The static sounds emulated and identical. I didn't ...

Re: Connected. See traffic. KAPA works. Can't hear/speak in

I've also tried creating a new trial PE account which has access to the ZLA and tried LAX again with no luck.

Also tried switching to different wifi. No luck.

Same result every time. Works at KAPA. Doesn't work at LAX but I can see myself on the map and can see traffic.
